Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's back to work Monday again. Yesterday actually cleared up very nicely, sun came out for a bit and all. Sports wise, my Eagles lost last night, Beth's Jets lost as well and Dale Jr. got eliminated from the NASCAR Chase even with a 2nd place finish at Talladega. Anyway, we have the World Series this week starting tomorrow night and I hope Beth's Mets win it all for her sake. Enjoy the week everyone and smoke a favorite or two or....... :banger

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's kickin'. The Mets lost again last night giving the Royals a 2 - 0 lead in the World Series. Game 3 is tomorrow evening here in NY and it's a must win for sure. Tonight, we'll be heading over to Doc James Cigars in Shrub Oak, NY for a change as they are hosting a Tatuaje event from 1800-2100 (6-9pm). $30 = 2 cigars, dinner and drinks, hard to beat that and it's a great shop as well. https://www.facebook.com/DocJamesCig...type=3&theater

Re: Good morning Post and sports update
 

Good Sunday morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's the 1st day of November. Well, the Mets won Friday night and lost last night giving the Royals a 3 - 1 series advantage. All the Mets can do now is win the next 3 games to be crowned the World Series champs. NASCAR will drop the green flag around 1315 (1:15pm) at Martinsville, VA which is the shortest track in the series: http://www.nascar.com/en_us/news-med...ress-pass.html Later on today, Beth and I will be heading over to Billy Joe's Ribworks to support and be a part of Movember: https://www.facebook.com/NewburghBre...type=3&theater Hope you all have a great Sunday and enjoy....... :)
